This example is not so obvious. This is my Lavendar soap the first picture is gelled and the second picture is ungelled. In this soap I preferred the gelled.

This is my MacIntosh Apple soap the first soap is gelled and the second is ungelled. In this soap I preferred the ungelled.

It is totally the look that decides what I like, all of the soaps are great when I use them. I just prefer the look of some of them gelled and some ungelled. If I want the top to have the whipped frosting look I don't gel them, as they melt down when they gel.
 
Nice comparisons! Thanks so much for sharing these photos.

I also have some soaps that I prefer ungelled although I prefer the gelled ones most of the time.
 
They are all beautiful. I preferred my own soaps gelled since i like that translucent sheen and unmolding sooner

That is a really ugly cat.

Isn't it?!

The photo was basically a portrayal of how I was feeling one day and now, it makes me laugh so I keep it up....maybe I will replace it with a far cuter hairless puppy
 
I love that cat...

The second macintosh picture is my favorite. In this instance, I like both of the ungelled soaps better! Why am I gelling all my soaps then?! lol
